Joanne Janvier, BACP

Joanne Janvier is a United Kingdom-based therapist with 16 years of professional experience who focuses on supporting people through change and rebuilding confidence. She works with motivation, self-esteem and confidence, executive and professional coaching, and helps clients navigate life transitions. Her experience also includes supporting those affected by compassion fatigue, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, and a range of other concerns.

Joanne draws on collaborative, client-centered methods to create an open therapeutic space where thoughts and feelings can be explored without judgment. She positions herself as a guide, helping clients uncover values, build resilience and identify practical strategies that fit their lives. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life is acknowledged as an act of courage, and Joanne offers steady support and practical guidance through that process.

She holds BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects professional training and adherence to recognised practice standards in the UK. Joanne combines coaching skills with psychotherapy approaches to tailor sessions to each person, helping them find clearer direction, healthier coping, and improved emotional wellbeing.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Joanne works with several evidence-informed approaches to help people manage distress and build more meaningful lives. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping clients clarify their values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and take committed action toward goals - it is useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships and how they influence current connections and emotional responses - it can be especially helpful for relationship difficulties, attachment concerns and issues relating to abandonment or adoption. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours; it offers practical tools for managing anxiety, OCD symptoms and unhelpful thinking patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Joanne works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the approach as work progresses so the therapy remains useful and relevant.

Online therapy with Joanne is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit sessions around work, family and other commitments. These remote options increase accessibility for people in different locations and for international clients, while still allowing meaningful, focused therapeutic work with registered professionals.
